+Kernel driver `vt1211.o'
+=========================
+
+Status: Beta.
+
+Supported chips:
+  * Via VT1211 Super I/O Controller
+    Addresses scanned: none, address read from Super I/O config space
+
+Authors: Mark D. Studebaker <mdsxyz123@yahoo.com>
+
+
+Module Parameters
+-----------------
+
+force_addr=0xaddr	Set the I/O base address. Useful for boards
+			that don't set the address in the BIOS.
+			Don't use this unless the driver complains that the
+			base address is not set.
+			Example: 'modprobe vt1211 force_addr=0x680'
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The Via VT1211 Super I/O chip
+contains voltage/temperature monitoring and
+PWM control circuitry for two fans.
+
+We define the sensors as follows. Somewhat convoluted to minimize
+changes from via686a.
+
+	Sensor		Voltage Mode	Temp Mode	uch_config bit
+	--------	------------	---------	--------------	
+	Reading 1			temp3
+	Reading 3			temp1
+	UCH1/Reading2	in0		temp2		0x04
+	UCH2		in1		temp4		0x08
+	UCH3		in2		temp5		0x10
+	UCH4		in3		temp6		0x20
+	UCH5		in4		temp7		0x40
+	3.3V		in5
+	-12V		in6
+
+As noted above, 5 of the sensors are "universal channels" and can
+be set for either voltage or temperature.
+Set the uch_config bit (in /proc) to 0 for voltage and 1 for temperature.
+Voltages will read 0 if set for temperature.
+Temperatures will read a really low number if set for voltage.
+
+FAN rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
+triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. FAN 
+readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4 or 8) to give
+the readings more range or accuracy. This is important because some FANs
+report only one 'tick' each rotation, while others report two - making
+all readings twice as high. Not all RPM values can accurately be represented,
+so some rounding is done. With a divider of 2, the lowest representable
+value is around 2600 RPM.
+
+PWM values are from 0 to 100%. The first value in the /proc entry is
+the percentage; the second is the enable (0 or 1).
+
+If an alarm triggers, it will remain triggered until the hardware register
+is read at least once. This means that the cause for the alarm may 
+already have disappeared!  Note that in the current implementation, all
+hardware registers are read whenever any data is read (unless it is less
+than 1.5 seconds since the last update). This means that you can easily
+miss once-only alarms.
